    I'm glad they changed him in English to be less pervy. I strongly disliked him in the 2014 Heavensturn event.
    I strongly dislike the "lovable pervert" trope in general. Yes, I understand its common in Japanese media. It brings a lot of characters down in my eyes.

    This so much, I was genuinely happy at Jiraya's death when Naruto was new and being released, because it meant that I'd be free of his bullshit, and it made the entire rest of the that arc hollow because the story was trying to give you closure about a death that completely failed to impact me, Jiraya had always been the guy who tried to perv on a 12 year old boy because said boy could make himself look like a girl, and that never sat well with me.

    The trope is done to death and wasn't funy 40 years ago, I don't think it's funny now.
